How to get and use the Eye of Exit in Minecraft April Fools 2025 update

Normally, Mojang makes very chaotic updates for every April Fools', and this 2025 snapshot resembles it all. Among the many enticing things of Minecraft Snapshot 25w14craftmine stands up an item called the Eye of Exit. Standing as an opposite of the Eye of Ender, this item intriguingly works within the scenery of the newly introduced Mines. Make sure to get some valuable details on how to obtain and use it in the April Fools' release this year.

The Eye of Exit is a new item exclusive to the craftmine snapshot. It was created to assist players in navigating the new dark Mines. Unlike the Eye of Ender, which led the player to Stronghold, the Eye of Exit leads only to a way out of the Mines. Nevertheless, it has some conditions and disadvantages.

In the new Minecraft April Fools' Craftmine Update, you can't use the regular crafting menu. You can build a Crafting Table, you will not be able to use it until you have unlocked certain perks by gaining XP levels. This means that you will not be able to do much crafting on early worlds, and you will have to readjust your activities to unlocking those perks as fast as possible to expand your crafting and advancement options.
If you entered the new Mine and are looking for an exit, you must first craft an Eye of Exit. To craft the Eye of Exit, collect as follows:
Then you put those materials into a Crafter or Crafting Table to form the Eye of Exit. When the crafting table is used to create the Eye, it will be locked so that players may need to unlock perks in the inventory GUI to again use it.

The Eye of Exit opens up an interesting risk versus benefit to Craftmine. On one side, it's a useful navigation tool; on the other, its damage mechanic and mob wave limits push players to consider when and how they use it. Whether players choose to craft it early on or depend on access after an exit, mastery of the Eye of Exit stands to dramatically speed up their Mine exploration.
With the Mojang tradition of releasing experimental new features in the April Fools' updates, might we see something like this in the game one day? Only time will tell. For now, however, jump into Craftmine, create your Mines, and let the Eye of Exit lead your escape!
